LaMotte Shallow Water Testing Outfit – 5854-01

Features:

Uses standardized turbidity reagent to match the turbidity of a water sample

Comes with all the necessary apparatus and reagents needed to test 4 basic water quality test factors:

Temperature – Thermometer: -5° to 45°C in 0.5° increments

pH – 2 Octet Comparators: pH 3.0 to 10.5pH in 0.5 increments

Turbidity – Drop Count: 0 – 200 JTU in 5 JTU steps

Dissolved Oxygen – DRT: 0 – 10 ppm O2, readable to 0.2 ppm increments

Also included are detailed instructions all together in a protective foam insert inside of a hard field-ready carrying case

For grades 5 and up

This educational kit is designed to teach the proper testing methods for 4 important shallow water testing factors. With shallow water testing different methods are required for determining turbidity. Instead of a Secchi Disk to determine turbidity, which requires a certain depth of water to use properly, this kit teaches students how to use a standardized turbidity reagent to acquire an accurate turbidity reading.

It calculates turbidity based on the number of drops it takes of standardized turbidity reagent it takes to look into the bottom of a test tube. Included with this kit are everything needed for accurate testing and understanding of testing methods.
